As you know, today during the flight from

0:02

Tomsk to Moscow, Alexei Navalny suddenly fell ill.

0:04

He lost consciousness, and the plane

0:06

made an emergency landing in Omsk.

0:08

Navalny was hospitalized with

0:09

suspected toxic poisoning.

0:10

He is currently in intensive care in Omsk.

0:13

He is in a coma. He has been placed on

0:15

a mechanical ventilator. His

0:17

condition remains serious. There is still no clear diagnosis,

0:20

and we do not know what exactly

0:21

caused everything that

0:23

happened.

0:23

Navalny’s family and associates have decided

0:25

to transfer him to another clinic.

0:27

This needs to be done at least because

0:29

the hospital in Omsk where he is now being treated

0:31

simply does not have sufficient equipment

0:33

to carry out all the necessary

0:34

tests and procedures. In addition, this must be done

0:37

for safety reasons.

0:38

The organizational issue of

0:40

transferring Navalny to another hospital

0:41

is under our control. We thank everyone

0:44

who has offered us help, but at the moment we

0:45

have all the necessary resources.

0:47

Nevertheless, we ask the management

0:49

of the hospital where

0:50

Alexei is currently being treated not to obstruct the release of all

0:53

the documents required for his transfer.

0:55

Thank you for your support. I will

0:57

provide updates as soon as

0:58

new information becomes available. In addition,

1:00

I ask you to rely only on these

1:02

messages and not to trust other

1:03

sources.
